[Alessandro]

The pieces are back.

Ready to make the decorlines in Gold.
I'm covering wiht strips for the golden lines around the red decor.
A golden checked flag strip will come on the length line of the tank and seat cowl.
The ground painting is a white effect metallic.
The red is a candy red.
Unfortunately you can't see the effect of the colour without the sun light.
For now ist no lack (clear cover paint oh my english...) on the pieces.
I will post some pictures when the bike is finished outside in the sun.

Would you bottle up some your artistic ability and send to me?
If I'd have done that pin striping it would have looked like someone threw limp spaghetti at it.
Still enjoying your build.

Hi
I guess this was a compliment.

It just needs a good eye and a lot af patience...

The major thing is, I love to do such things.
